I got the paint on and have started some of the bolt ons. I had a booth lined up but it fell through so I just said the . . . with it and painted it at home. Luckily it turned out.

Looks Awesome! Nice job! 8-)

8) I really like the Buick treatment on the front fenders! :cool:

Great job, I almost used those same rims.

Looks great! That is a ton of work! Thanks for sharing. You will be ready to cruise soon.......just in time for rainy season here :mad: Oh well! Maybe we will see you at the shows!

464,That looks Great!After seeing all the good work you did ,if anyone ever says you`re lazy, let me know and I will bitch slap them for you.Hope you will be able to attend Super Chevy Show at Moroso in Palm Beach area with us in late October.Congradulations on what had to be many,many hours of work.

In those famous words, "He likes it! Mikey likes it!"

Exactly what color is that? Vewy, vewy nice. 8)

Take care.

That is one sweet looking ride, cant wait to see it in person.

Thanks for all the praise guys! I appreciate sharing with people that I know understand the hours of just plain ol' back breaking labor goes into some of these projects.

the front fender mod are ports from 2006 Lucerne Buick.

The color is Sonoma Jewel. It is an 07 Hummer color, code 412p.

Yes I plan on being at Moroso in the fall. I look forward to meeting you and sharing stories along with a little bench racing.

464, looking good.

I have tried my hand at spray painting my Holden Ute and I now know I have a lot to learn. I have used single stage paint myself with a small direct drive compressor and cheap gun.

In seeing the results you achieved you are obviously a pro or semi-pro. Excellent job and nice ride.

Actually I have a 10 horse Ingersol Rand compressor and it is base coat clear coat. I used single stage acrylic enamel on the underside and the firewall to make it easier to touch up if needed at a later date.
I have done quite a bit of painting but it has been about 15 years since I kind of decided to get out of the fumes.

I absolutely drool over your posts. keep up the good work!
